Sean Astin is as enthusiastic as any other Lord Of The Rings fans about the remake. Now, Sean Astin, who had played the role of Frodo Baggins’ best friend Samwise Gamgee in the film’s franchise, is as enthusiastic as any other LOTR fans about the remake. When I saw the Amazon thing, that didn’t even occur to me. JRR Tolkien series was previously adapted for the big screen by director Peter Jackson in the form of three films, The Fellowship of the Ring (2001), The Two Towers (2002) and The Return of the King (2003).

And people always said, ‘Oh no, it’ll never get remade! The last film of the franchise had won 11 Oscars, including Best Picture. It’s a massive story! Although nothing has been finalised between the studios and the estate, that has not stopped Sean Astin from imagining how the series might appear on the small screen. And I guess in the Hobbit trilogy, you spent a little time with them, but the culture of the dwarves in the mines… I would love to see like five hours of that,” he said. Originally the LOTR books had its origin from the book, The Silmarillion, followed by The Hobbit and then the three popular books, The Fellowship of the Ring, The Two Towers, and The Return of the King. It’s a classic! Who?,” he added.
